Reflection over WebQuests

Upon completion of the Web Quest exercise, I feel that Web Quests are definitely something I could incorporate in my classroom in the future. However, I am going to be very selective on the ones I choose to use in my classroom. I was most impressed with those very clear, concise, and to the point. They are a great resource for those students who can work independently on the web to learn a particular concept or content. I look forward to looking at more examples.

Reflection over PB Works, Wikis, and Google Docs

As I reflect on my new knowledge of PB Works, Wikis, and Google Docs, I come away with very confident feelings about using these tools to collaborate with fellow teachers as well as with my students in my future classroom. In regards to PB Works, I really like how you are able to share information and useful resources with other teachers in your same field of study. As for the Wikis, the capability to share work with others without constantly e-mailing will save me large amounts of time once I get used to using them. I also like how other people can edit your work making it more professional and correct. Lastly, I was very excited to learn about Google Docs and how you can save documents on the computer, which definitely comes in handy when working off of several different computers. Overall, all three new tools will definitely save me time and help me collaborate with others in regards to teaching.
